Obstruction of passage along legal road; Rocky Hill Rd
Richard Murcott made this Official Information request to Carterton District Council
The request was partially successful.
From: Richard Murcott
Dear Carterton District Council,
In your capacity as local roads controlling authority.
Previously, the public has enjoyed unfettered access to a 9km length of Rocky Hill Rd by light vehicle. The road passes through a unique landscape and ends near Taipo Minor (feature) where there is a nice block of the conservation estate (the Rocky Hills Sanctuary Area).
NZ Walking Access Commission mapping refers:
https://maps.walkingaccess.govt.nz/Viewe...
The alignment between the trafficable path (roadway/track) and the legal road is good throughout the 9km (compared to the alignments of many remote rural roads in other parts of NZ).
Currently, passage along this legal road, beyond the 6km mark, is obstructed by a locked gate which prevents light vehicles from passing along the remaining 3km of Rocky Hill Rd (that's a 6km return to the gate)
It would be appreciated if any locks on the gate obstructing light vehicle passage along the legal road are removed by 1 February 2022.
If for any reason this cannot be undertaken or confirmed, then please share all information held by the authority (CDC) relating to this obstruction on Rocky Hill Rd (legal road).
Yours faithfully,
Richard Murcott

Dear LGOIMA Requests,
Curious to learn how the original request of 23 December 2021 was 'overlooked' (if that's what happened?).
Unfortunately, this appears to have created unintended effort.
Yours sincerely,
Richard Murcott
